Fake, misleading, distorted news everywhere you turn. Why would box office reports - backing up what they've been endlessly predicting - be any less fake?
I was driving down the road yesterday and they were talking about record “pre-sales”. I marked my calendar. It was the first time in my life I ever heard them reporting on pre-sales of a movie.
Deadline’s projects are often far too high. Noticed this with Blade Runner.
I think it will be that and maybe more. We just went to see 17:15 to Paris and the line for black Lanter was around the block. We couldn’t get concessions due to the lines for just food and drinks were out the door. It’s wild! It wouldn’t be surprised if it gets close or over 300 million this weekend. This is a rare event.
